Chapter 915: The Great War in Europe


After the countries bordering the Black Sea declared their independence, the Ottoman Turkish Empire, which sided with Germany, uncharacteristically supported Britain and France and supported the independence of these countries.Serbia, Bulgaria and Romania were also historically part of the Ottoman Turkish Empire.Later, under the constant agitation of Russia and Austria-Hungary, it had already moved towards independence.As a result, they were later divided between Russia and Austria-Hungary, but I didn't expect it to be a failure to report, and the time had not come.These countries once again launched their independence movements, and the Ottoman Empire, of course, supported them in order to regain them later.The fate of small countries is always in the hands of big countries, and these small countries are tossed around by big countries over and over again, and can only become cannon fodder for conspiracy.There is chaos in Europe, but there are two countries in the world that are independent and have watched the excitement from the sidelines.One is the new China and the other is the United States.Qiao Zhiqing still admires the judgment of the US leadership, and although their strength is not the first in the world at this time, it is already the world's leading level.But they just made a fortune quietly, and they didn't care about the world's major affairs, and they didn't form an alliance with anyone.This country is a big disaster for New China, and Qiao Zhiqing is not without a reaction at all.He began his business twenty years ago, and he had already established contacts with the countries of the Americas through merchants.They have supported the national independence movements of these countries and secretly given a lot of weapons support.Whether it is Mexico in North America, Brazil or Argentina in South America, most of the low-level national independence forces have received Qiao Zhiqing's assistance.Much of South and North America was also a colony of old European empires.It doesn't seem to have much to do with the United States at the moment, but they do constrain the key pawns of the United States.On the other hand, Qiao Zhiqing gave a large amount of arms aid to black Americans to support their movement against whites.All this aid is underground, and Qiao Zhiqing's move is also to mess up the United States and let them develop in turmoil as much as possible.Racial discrimination in the United States is at its most intense, despite the Civil War and the emancipation of black slaves.But blacks are still at the bottom of society, and they have accumulated considerable contradictions with whites.The biggest loophole in the United States is that there is no gun ban policy.Qiao Zhiqing specially supported Chinese gangsters in the United States, providing them with arms at low prices and allowing them to sell them in the United States.The United States is very helpless about this matter, and they are far from having the strength to argue with New China.Now that the national strength of New China has long surpassed that of any old empire in the world, the advantages of land area and population have been fully manifested at this time.Not a single mourning population reached 600 million at this time, and the mere thought of the numbers sent chills to all the powers.The European powers have long been aware of this indisputable fact, but they just refuse to recognize it for the sake of face.After all, there has never been a full-scale conflict between the two sides, and there is no intuitive understanding of which is stronger or weaker.Until now, the old aristocrats in Britain and France still think that New China is just bluffing people, and the inside is not terrible at all.Their China policy has not changed, and they still choose containment and confrontation in order to maintain their world hegemony forever.Now they are in a mess, and Qiao Zhiqing is watching the excitement from the sidelines.The old empires of Europe are aware of the external threat of the new China, but when the actual interests are violated, no one can think about the long-term.Now it is just for the sake of immediate interests, and they have no control over what New China will do in the future.Peace in Europe lasted only a year, and the powder keg was finally ignited.In the early spring of 1895, Crown Prince Ferdinand of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was assassinated in Serbia.Qiao Zhiqing has always made people keep an eye on this piece, and after Ferdinand's assassination, the information was quickly transmitted back to New China through layers of Firefox strongholds."

Uncle Qiao, you are becoming more and more like a fairy.The crown prince named Ferdinand was really assassinated in Serbia" Tian Runye sent the telegram in his hand to Qiao Zhiqing in surprise, and his eyes were almost dying of admiration.This expression is not the first time she has appeared, but this time when the news came, after Qiao Zhiqing's prediction was met again, Tian Runye couldn't help but feel incredible."

It's finally here" Qiao Zhiqing's face smiled calmly, but the secret guard looked at it carefully, as if everything was expected.Everything that is happening in Europe now is a rehearsal before the First World War in that time and space.It's just that now he is secretly pushing forward, advancing the time of World War I by more than ten years.The fate of Ferdinand, the crown prince of Austria-Hungary, is really doomed, he is a dove of Austria-Hungary, and his confidence in himself is still too strong.I thought that the Serbs were all behind him and on his side.Ferdinand has always been a supporter of national autonomy in Serbia, but not for them to become independent.Just let them have all the autonomy on the premise of one country.In the perception of the nationalists at the bottom, it doesn't matter what policies he has.Is it hawkish or dove, radical or conservative.As long as he is assassinated, it will cause a sensation and Serbia will be able to move towards independence.This assassin will make history, but he may not know it now.The situation in Europe, which was already tense, was already on the verge of eruption, and now that the crown prince was assassinated, the fire could no longer be contained."

Uncle Qiao, is this prince so important, why do you care so much about him" Tian Runye looked at the globe boringly, and even Serbia did not mark this place on the globe.She searched for a long time to find Austria-Hungary, and she didn't know what was important about the assassination of the crown prince of a country."

You don't understand that the death of this prince will cause a great war in the whole of Europe.Soon after, the news came back, you immediately send a telegram to the President of Poland, so that he is ready to deal with it, and he will stand on the side of Britain and France with all his might, and fight Germany to the end" Qiao Zhiqing smiled and did not explain too much.Now, if you explain more, you will really become a god."

No, it's so serious" Tian Runye glared in surprise, wrote down Qiao Zhiqing's instructions, and quickly went down to let people send them out.She watched the intelligence of Europe every day in disbelief, and within a month, the news of the war between France and Germany soon came.Immediately after that, the news of the declaration of war by various countries came one after another, and it was simply overwhelming.The countries that had been holding back at the beginning have finally erupted one by one.Qiao Zhiqing carefully analyzed every piece of news, and to his surprise, the Ottoman Turkish Empire chose to side with Britain and France this time.This move of theirs, after careful analysis, can also be fully explained.Originally, Qiao Zhiqing's time and space, the Ottoman Turkish Empire participated in World War I because of the contradictions with Russia.Now that Russia had just collapsed, the interests of Ottoman Turkey were aligned with those of Britain and France, all aimed at containing the expansion of Austria-Hungary in the Black Sea Balkans.It makes sense that they can come together
